I'm considering an E85 tune, and have some questions. The car is a daily driven 2016 GT A6.
Here in Sweden E85 is readily available and cost 50 % less than gasoline. Even if the car will use 30 % more fuel, I look to save 20 % on my fuel costs. I drive a lot, so this will save me about 1000 USD a year.
My questions are then:

My questions are then:
- Why isn't everybody here in Sweden using E85 only? (Or another place where E85 is available and cheap)
- Are there any negatives to running E85 on this car?
- Can I use E85 constantly on this car for thousands of miles with zero negative effects compared to gasoline?
- What happens if I fill E85 on the car now, in stock form? Can it run with it?
- I have understood Lund Racing is considered the best tuner. Do I need to pay for the 350 USD extra charge for "international customers"?
If yes, purchasing just a Lund tune costs 800 USD. Without, its 450 USD. - How do I get the best deal doing this?
If I purchase a CAI, nGauge, and tune from an American website, this is 1300 USD + shipping + 25 % tax = 1900 USD. However the tune itself is half the cost, and just software, so it feels dumb to pay 25% tax on it. I can purchase a CAI and SCT tuner locally (with some JLT or Steeda tune, depending on the CAI, which I guess I won't need or use?), for around 1000 USD. Then maybe add Lund tune for 450 USD, purchased online, and since its just software and a service not needing to ship, hopefully without the 25 % tax? - What is love?
